Olga Kowalsky, age 91 of Seymour, beloved wife of the late Sergey Kowalsky, died Friday, December 21, 2012, at the Bishop Wicke HealthCare Center, Shelton, surrounded by her family. Born in Ansonia on July 25, 1921, she was the daughter of the late Theodore F. and Anna Spiwak Worobel. Mrs. Kowalsky was a 1939 Graduate of Ansonia High School and 1941 Graduate of Ansonia Business College where she studied bookkeeping and secretarial skills. Having many careers throughout her life, Olga worked as a clerk for the CT DMV, a cashierfor the local Stop and Save Grocery Stores, and doing her part for the war effort in WWII, she served her country by becoming a heavy crane operator at the Farrell Co. A multi-talented woman, she loved to cook, share recipes; she was a passionate gardener and was often spotted with her pruning shears and clippers in hand. Olga loved and cared for all. Her friendliness, cheerfulness, generosity andkindness were endless. She consistently visited and supported friends and families in times of need. Her address book, packed with contacts, was her prized possession as she loved the telephone and keeping in touch with all. Ultimately, Olga Kowalsky was the family matriarch - a passionate mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. Always proud of her children and grandchildren- she would speak to each of them weekly. Each of her grandchildren were blessed with a crocheted afghan, crafted by her hands in their college colors. Olga will be forever remembered as Gee Gee by her cherished great-grandchildren. A woman of great faith, she was a devout and lifelong member of Sts. Peter and Paul Church, where she taught her children and grandchildren the love of Jesus Christ. She especially enjoyed the cultural traditions of the Holy Days. At Easter, Olga would bake dozens of babkas and pinch hundreds of pierogi to distribute to friends and family. Cape Cod was a special part of Olga's life.She enjoyed clamming, the sun and the unspoiled beaches. Linguini and clam sauce made from fresh clams was a Cape Cod staple. She also loved vacationing in Maine. Olga would wait for the catch of theday to prepare a feast for all.
